US Politics

Lets see if we can keep this thread a little more civil.

I found this interview very interesting.  A lot of soft balls thrown at Trump, he explained his back pedalling on his more extreme issues as a lot of his claims as opening bids for negotiation purposes.  Which .. whatever .. I still think that those are insincere claims he used to get elected.

He does now come across way more presidential then he did prior to the election.  A lot of his noise, yelling, and rhetoric has been scaled back.

Do respect this one though:

Quote

 

Lesley Stahl: Are you gonna take the salary, the president’s salary?

Donald Trump: Well, I’ve never commented on this, but the answer is no. I think I have to by law take $1, so I’ll take $1 a year. But it’s a -- I don’t even know what it is.

Donald Trump: Do you know what the salary is?

Lesley Stahl: $400,000 you’re giving up.

Donald Trump: No, I’m not gonna take the salary. I’m not taking it.

What a bunch of crap. Strong focus. Ha! He’s going flogging as usual.

Much else? That’s what we’re worried about.

- 150K people are dead and millions are out of work and Trump's priority for the COVID relief bill is $2 BILLION for a new FBI HQ in downtown DC because Trump doesn't want the FBI to move to the suburbs and have the old site redeveloped w/a hotel that will compete with his

- ...would destroy our American cities, and worse, if Sleepy Joe Biden, the puppet of the Left, ever won. Markets would crash and cities would burn. Our Country would suffer like never before. We will beat the Virus, soon, and go on to the Golden Age - better than ever before! - Donald Trump

Perhaps @sweep the leg can provide a better diagnosis? 😁

 

To much golfing and kicking the walls in the WH

Imho and with respect I find Jerry Nadler really struggles as a chair and is not very well spoken with his questioning and commentary when really needed. Based on the clips I saw today at Barr’s appearance before the house the Democrats have very strong women in their caucus that could do a much better job. Nadler is not helping the cause here and may in fact be hurting it.

Given that Pelosi is no spring chicken......Dems could use some new blood in there.

To me it’s not about old blood or new blood, it’s about good blood. Jerry Nadler just comes across as weak regardless of his age.

Trump wonders why Fauci is so highly regarded and he isn't..............................for a genius he can't figure that one out

Barr’s whole disposition and how he easily exudes ‘I don’t give a poop what you think about me and how I do things’ is all together alarming, scary, maddening, exhausting and bewildering. And yes lurkers I’m sure people who previously held this position didn’t wear a halo over their head but that doesn’t justify his actions at all. What about arguments aren’t really valid arguments, they are weak, lazy and lack critical thinking.

Ok Jan

Funny, I haven't heard of any unrest in these cities or states...

 

 

 

Could it be because these are swings states?  Nah, that would be illegal.
